I would strongly recommend that you not use any Diamond products. I lost a cat to Premium Edge and their recent recall in the Western NY area. This company has had too many recalls and too many pet owners like me have lost beloved animals thinking they were doing something good for them. NO DIAMOND PRODUCTS

I love diamond brand and havw fed it to all my cats for years. I am very sorry for your loss but maybe your pet had an underlying medical problem??
I work for a vet and he recommends it, although we don’t carry it.

I run a cat sanctuary and feed Diamon’s Natural Cat Food for Active Cats. After losing the 12th cat in less than six months, I am really beginning to wonder. All are seemingly healthy cats who simply stopped eating, rapidly become very weak and by the time I can rush them to the vet, they are in liver failure. Now I am beginning to wonder.
